Probably the best match these four could have at this stage. Really liked Kobashi and Mutoh trying to kill each other at the start instead of the whole mutual respect deal we sometimes get in first meetings. People have pointed out mistakes but I find it easy to overlook those when the match is so fun.

Kawada & Taue vs Akiyama & KENTA ****1/2

Definitely one of my favourite puro matches this year. I'm a huge fan of KENTA but I especially like when he takes on heavyweights, and Kawada-KENTA didn't disappoint. NOAH have got to get Kawada for more shows.
